It took me less then 4 hours to get my permission to stay from the police from applying to going back to get my documents. It took one hour to get my municipality registration. I also had no problems buying my house and getting a bank account and then buying an investment apartment for my business.
I bought a car , the dealer had t registered to me in 2 hours !! Its all been easier and quicker than UK where you can bang your head on the fone being put on hold by a jobsworth.
Cone here as a dumb foreigner thinking lithuania is a poor backward uneducated country and they will treat you accordingly. They have a far higher level of success in education than UK
